I'm not sure if I bought this yesterday or not. I bought the Brinkmann 4 burner at HD for $199. I was listed in their ad, but nowhere did I see it as On Sale from $369, nor did I see Charglow. I hate that about HD. Anyway, for $200, I decided to grab this Brinkmann and maybe it's what you were talking about.
The Mrs cleaned our grill last year with bleach...what! I need that for the pool!!! Anyway, as you can imagine, the first light up after the cleaning, we knew by the melting knobs and singing control panel that all of the bleach cleaner had not be washed off. That's when she told me she used a bleach cleaner on the grill
So I decided to pick up a relatively cheap grill this year, until I decide whether to convert to charcoal, etc.
This Brinkmann was easy enough to put together. As you'll see in other reviews, save the supplied screw driver for replacing batteries in toys and such and break out the craftsman. I didn't wear gloves, but I can see where you'd get cut if you weren't paying attention. It was 95 degrees, when I started assembling - our timing is never great for projects, but it wasn't horrible so that's a good sign.
There were some scratches and even a bent tab that needed fixing - just with pliers. If it were a car, I would have returned it, but for $200 and all scratches being hidden, I slapped it together and fired it up. I can see how one might fry their eyebrows, because this thing does get hot!! I had all 4 burners cooking for 10 minutes or so, to burn off the residual packing oils, etc. I'll be surprised if this unit doesn't cook well.
I tried my best to blow out the sideburner, while it was on, and it held just fine.
One note on the controls. Someone posted a review saying that there is no way to turn down the side burner. You turn counterclockwise to ignite, and at that point, it's on high and you continue top turn counterclockwise to reduce the flame to LOW. Only it doesn't reduce it very well. BUT, if you ingite, then turn back clockwise, heading toward the OFF, it does reduce the flame just fine. I don't think I recall a control that didn't have low on it's way back to OFF, but the LOW feature on this grill is odd that way.
I'll grab the rotissiere, mostly since I think these grills are being discontinued.
Anyway, just thought I'd throw this out there. Seems to be worth the $200 so far and if I get 3-4 seasons out of it, I'll be happy.
